Cute idea

Ok, please don't think less of me, but.... today I watched the Martha Stewart show. It's true, but I can honestly say it was the only channel we had, the only other one we have was for some reason not working, and it's the View which isn't much better I agree. So why did I turn the T.V. on? I don't know, but I found a really cute idea, so cute it needs to be shared. I know Shari will love it 'cause we're crazy knitters. They use a knitting machine (cheaters) and then felt it in the washer, I didn't even know you could do that, so cool!


She makes lots of different animals into backpacks or pillows, so cute! She knits them using wool yard and then turns them into felt and adds the little finishing touches. They have the template on Marthas site, but I couldn't get it to come up. I also went to the original site to look at what else they have. Enjoy, I did. Ciao

touque or thong?

Oh Linds, you'll love this. I'm looking for a touque pattern for my bro and found this instead!



Does that beat the old patterns you found at your parents? Hilarious, I couldn't stop laughing!

This is a true test to see who still reads this blog. Is it indeed just Linds as I had thought, or will I get comments from Grandma and Mom-in-law, yipee! Love you all!

The Best Thing Ever
FOUND by Sam in New York, New York
It was the first nice day of spring so I decided to go to Central Park. I found a nice plot of grass to lay down on and eventually fell asleep. When I awoke this was folded up behind my head.

Linds you totally got me addicted to the found web site I saw this on there today, it was SO SWEET!

For the non facebookers

New Pictures
My froggy

theres some links for some updated photos, I hope it works! I feel bad neglecting the people who don't have facebook! Sorry guys!

I kinda updated on our life last time, it was a sorry excuse for an update. But really things are just in a nice groove and theres not much to talk about. I still feel like I want to hibernate. I'm just holding back from getting the Christmas decorations out. I'll wait a couple more weeks. I am using my Christmas mug already (eggnog in the coffee every morning) Oh and don't judge me for drinking coffee while I'm pregnant 'cause I refuse to be judged on that. I tried, I really did. I choose to believe that it's good for the baby. And of course listening to Christmas music:-) Oh and my Christmas list is complete and reveiwed and edited and expanded and revised. I'm ready. Except for the cards. I've been working all week trying to find a simple layout for nice Christmas cards and I just don't like anything I do. I have a friend who throws stuff together in a few minutes that always looks so amazing. I should break into her house and steal her cards for ideas, or maybe I could just ask. Or maybe we could trade brains for awhile.
Ok, that's enough rambling for one day. I'm getting a bump, I have no clothes that fit, it's more frustrating than it seems it should be. Even my sweat pants are tight, what the heck, it's my tummy that's supposed to grow not my butt! Waahhh!!!
